As it stands we’re 5 places below an extra CL spot. I think a couple more good seasons (i.e. clubs reaching the group stages) would take us there. Of course it depends on how teams from the countries around us perform.

How refreshing to see all four Scottish teams taking care of their first round legs.

Great result for Celtc away in Bosnia after going behind (with 2 stunning goals to boot), and an emphatic win for Sevco in Gibraltar.

A bit tighter for Aberdeen and Killie, but job done.

The four clubs winning brings us closer to an extra place - that makes our chances of Europe greater. It also keeps their players with a heavier workload, meaning they've more chance of dropping domestic games (again, to our benefit).

There’s a couple on this thread that wanted all Scottish teams to win, which all sounds pretty normal in terms of boosting our coefficient.

Until you realise the huns are one of those 4, **** ever wishing them to win a game.

:agree: It's a tin pot mentality when we are hoping teams go out to our own detriment. Hope they lose every game in the league but we need them to get to the Group Stages. Aberdeen doing so as well would help.

[CMurdoch]

Only Celtic and Rangers have any chance of getting to the group stages so no large windfall going Aberdeen's way.

Last weeks 4 wins were worth 0.25 of a point each and the return legs should see at least another 3 wins.
We currently sit 20th and need to get into the top 15 to get another Scottish team into Europe.
We will probably reach that position after season 20/21.
Hibs should never be worse than 5th place from now on so we would be almost guaranteed European football every season.

Celtic through. Another win towards the co-efficient. Both Leigh and Euan Henderson got on.

[CMurdoch]

Christie was very good in both legs.
I can see him having a great season and forcing himself into the Scotland team.

Tonight's win adds another 0.250 to the Scotland coefficient.
We are currently closing down on Switzerland and being chased by Norway.
Another 0.750 of a point up for grabs for Scottish teams tomorrow night.

Fairly certain of it. Clarke worked them into being much better than the sum of their parts. Whoever was going to follow him in the dugout was on a hiding to nothing. I suspect it’ll be a similar case when DMc leaves Aberdeen.

As sad as it is, Killie will be bottom 6, and I suspect their manager will be gone by Christmas. It’s a pity, because we need strong teams out with the Glasgow sides

Killie were always the most likely side to **** up early doors. They are in for a real struggle this season imo.

I'm not too downhearted though. Aberdeen, Celtic and Rangers all progressed with relative ease. Add to that last year we had a decent run, relatively speaking, Rangers reached the group stages, Celtic progressed from their Europa League group and Aberdeen put in a decent performance over 2 legs against an EPL side.

It's an embarrassing result for Killie and in turn Scottish football but overall the last couple of seasons has seen our European performances take a small step forward. It wasn't so long ago that Celtic were going it alone after only 1 round of matches.

It doesn't matter which way you slice it, what an embarrassment for Killie and for Scottish football. I usually look for mitigating circumstances and any excuse I can find to put a less negative spin on bad results for Scottish teams in Europe.

Not this time … that's a shocker and there's simply no excuse for it … embarrassing for our game simple as that.

[660]

Killie are a tinpot club who have overachieved for 18 months due to a decent manager. Some of their fans taking it so badly they accuse anyone winding them up of perpetuating the old firm duopoly! They are due a relegation and won’t be any great loss.

[PatHead]

Celtic 1 0 up.

[PatHead]

Really can't work out if I want Aberdeen to go through. I agree that it would be good for our co-efficient but don't want them to get more money. McInnes said that if they go through they will get another defender.

Could cost us a league place.

Whatever happens to them I want Sevco to lose by more than 2 goals.

300 Killie fans out in Belgrade just now. Booked before the 2ns leg against Connah’s Quay
Seemingly hiring a boat for a booze cruise today

There's certainly some interesting sights to be seen on those boats in Belgrade! 😍

Before start of play today Scotland had gathered more UEFA coefficient points than any other country.
We are currently in 19th place having overtaken Switzerland and are now only 0.375 of a point behind Serbia who are down to 2 of their 4 teams still standing and only a further 0.125 of a point behind Croatia. Wins tonight for Aberdeen and Rangers would be worth 0.5 of a point.

Crap Factoid - By last night 5 countries had already had all their teams knocked out.
No doubt that will rise by the end of this evening.

The Rangers are not doing the business!
0-0 with 20 mins to go against a team from Luxemburg :confused:

Just for you.
There are a further 7 countries with only 1 team remaining in European competition at this time

****, i didn't switch over to the sheep

P.S. The Freddo has just come on as a sub

[we are hibs]

The Huns have been dire

[cabbageandribs1875]

2-0 aberdeen after 20 mins

next

[The_Horde]

Ojo looks very impressive and the winger Hedges looks like a massive upgrade on Joe Newell.

Newell isn’t a winger

[cabbageandribs1875]

that cosgrove dude looks about 7' 2"

[The_Horde]

Newell isn’t a winger

Hedges has played wide but not stayed wide either.

[CMurdoch]

Controlled the whole game and killed the tie.

When the Freddo came on they almost scored on a half dozen occasions as their opponents tired.
0.125 of a point lost on this tie, bah .......current buns.
On the bright side looking like a full 0.250 from Aberdeen.

[04Sauzee]

Newell isn’t a winger

Keep saying it Billy and it may sink in with some folk

Who knocked them out last season.

That's Albania lost their last team.

There will be tears on the streets of Tirana

[Keith_M]

It's highly unlikely but I'd love to see Celtc and The Rangers lose.

Stuff the co-efficient.

[CMurdoch]

Who knocked them out last season.

They did well last season.
Were knocked out from their group but I can't remember their other Europa Cup group members.
Hence Scotland jumping up 6 places last season.

[007]

Normally I'd agree but there's a very good chance we'll benefit from a 5th European place for Scottish teams so I'm hoping between the 3 of them they do just enough to get it an then they can ****** up.

[CMurdoch]

3-0 Aberdeen
Game over
Aberdeen playing well but their opponents are pants as they were last week

[NorthNorfolkHFC]

Aberdeen have a good side again this year.

Ojo is a cracking player, Hedges is really highly rated and the addition of Bryson is good as well. Old head in the middle to control things.

They’ll be a tough nut to crack this year.

All a benefit to us and the Scottish League in general - I just can't understand people wanting our representatives out when it can readily benefit us. Such a tin-pot attitude.

Lets see how they do in the 3rd Q round - remember, thats when we got Molde last year.

A different class of opposition I imagine and more of an indicator of how they are going to do - meantime, I will be quite happy for sportsound and others to cream themselves over them.

[Unseen work]

Aberdeen looked very very good tonight.

Full of energy, sharp, high tempo and were impressive on the ball, moving it quickly along the deck.

The boy Hedges looks a real player, faster than Newell but I imagine plays similar to what Heck wants him to.

Think they will have a very good of season seasom based on that.

Can also work against us.

Getting to the Europa League group stage is worth £4m this year. The sheep already pay more than us, £4m pushes them way further in front of us. I accept its quite unlikely they’ll get that far, not impossible though. I’m not keen on our rivals doing too well.

STOP PRESS

Scotland have leapfrogged Serbia and now sit in 18th place in the UEFA coefficient and are now only a drawn game behind Croatia in 17th

Oops!

Serbia have just jumped over Scotland and Croatia BUT only have 2 teams left!!!

What Croatian teams are in the next round?

[CMurdoch]

Scotlands teams have already picked up 3 point which is as many as we earned in the whole of the 2015/16 season.
A good effort so far.

I want The Huns out because I hate them, and I'm unable to wish them well in any tournament. However, if their progress in Europe helps Scotland's co-efficient then that makes me feel better about it.

[CMurdoch]

They have 3 teams left out of 4 but I can't name them off the top of my head

I did note our chums FC Astana won 4-1 tonight

HJN Rijeka from that well known Croatian place of Rijeka
Population 130k in the city and 250k in the metropolitan area!
That compares to Aberdeens 215k and 240k

Game on with our coefficient rivals

[CMurdoch]

Lots of folk on this site are impressed by Icelandic football.
All their team have now been knocked out.

8 countries have no teams left

[MWHIBBIES]

Cosgrove will probably be top scorer this season.

Yip totally agree, got the makings of a good team.

NK Osijek of Croatia have just lost on penalties
Croatia down to 2 teams (Dinamo Zagreb in the Champion League & Aberdeens opponents in the Europa Cup)

Only two Croatian team left as Osijek just knocked on penalties by CSKA Sofia.

Just Rijeka and Dinamo Zagreb left.

Rijeka’s really a well known place if you are familiar with that part of Europe. Birthplace of my daughter’s favourite player, World Cup hero Sime Vrsaljko. 😏

People are impressed by the Icelandic national side, I don't think this place is a hot-bed of discussion on the up and downs of the Icelandic league. With a population smaller than Edinburgh I think getting a national team to the places they've been is pretty impressive. Rubbish style but athletic and organised.

I know i was twistin' the facts for my own selfish reasons.
The rubbish athletic organised style of the Icelanders is the only one possible for success with such a small population.
Top pragmatists.

Good factoid Wallpaperman.
Rijeka have performed much better than Aberdeen in Europe over the last 4 years and on that basis will be favourites.
Finished 2nd in the Croatian league last season below Dinamo Zagreb.

Dinamo have had some cracking players come through. Mandzukic, Eduardo (albeit Brazilian born), Modric, Kovacic off the top of my head.

Very good league and Rijeka will rightly be favourites.

[Sylar]

If Celtc beat Cluj, they'll play Slavia Prague in the next round.

[JohnM1875]

If Celtc beat Cluj, they'll play Slavia Prague in the next round.

Would that be for a place in the group stages? Or is there one more round after Slavia Prague?

Sime Vrsaljko also a product of the Dinamo youth system.

The Rijeka stadium is really stunning by the way, sort of built into rocks on one side and the sea on the other, very cool. Should be a good tie.

Arrived in Croatia last night for a holiday and was flicking through the channels and found Killie v Rangers full match rerun on one of their sports channels. Thought this weird until i remembered the Huns have two Croatians, must be why such an odd game was on Croatian TV.

Fantastic website, don’t need anything else for keeping up on coefficients etc.

Also backs up my belief that contrary to the thoughts of many, our league is no more ‘pub league’ than many of the better thought of leagues in Europe.

Celtic 1 down against Cluj

[Monts]

If Celtic lose this tie are they out altogether or do they parachute down?

[SJNB Hibby]

They parachute into the EL...would play the winners of Sherriff Tiraspol, AIK Solna

[Wee Scottie Dug]

If Celtic lose this tie are they out altogether or do they parachute down?

They drop down into the Europa qualifiers ......

[PatHead]

1 1 at half time. James Forest equaliser.

[Sylar]

Good response from Celtc after going behind.

Nice to see young Lewis Morgan getting regular playing time this season. He's quite comfortable out that left side.

The Celtc LB is honking.

[Sylar]

Did the referee just book the Cluj manager? Is that a new rule?
